Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Arnold should have been long gone. The Texans pounced, and earned a B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Terrion Arnold, the 42nd overall pick, roughly 24 picks past where he belonged.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They are betting Owens proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Running back was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick42 Rnd2 Terrion Arnold
Terrion Arnold in the Round 2 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick59 Rnd2 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson at the 59th pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick86 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
They barely believed it either: Kiran Amegadjie still on the board at Round 3, Pick 23. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick123 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at the 123rd overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick127 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
No drama and no debate, Isaac Guerendo went about where he belonged in No. 127. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick188 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
Good price on Ty'Ron Hopper in slot 188, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It fills a real need, too.
Pick247 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
The board had cheaper options than Tyler Owens at pick 247, and it noticed. A minor need, but a need all the same.
